Interviewer: Yeah, but it 's like a jacket with like a gor-- well, not gortex. They were always a hundred-and-fifty dollars. Everybody wanted one. And everybody always wanted the Chicago-Bulls or something-like- that.

Speaker: I was confused. Just like all are. Interviewer: Trying to fit in. Speaker: You-know, trying to fit in, even though I didn't need to. I was still a rocker, Interviewer: Yeah. Speaker: But um yeah that's what- that's what I was. And m-- my- I- you-know- jeans. Now I wear hoodies 'cause it's cold but you-know t-shirts, polos. Interviewer: Okay. Speaker: That kind-of thing.

Speaker: Yep. You can't- you can't wear ah bandanas near Le-Bop or Le-Bistro either. Interviewer: Really? Speaker: 'Cause the gang-rate is very, very high. There, you can't wear a hood, a hoodie, and you can't wear any, like, insignia or anything like that. 'Cause one ti-- 'cause, like, as guide, as exec members, we have hoodies, right? And sometimes you just put your hood up. And we were walking in and they were like- basically, the bouncers grabbed us all and pushed us aside and was like, "Show us your I-D! What gang are you part of? Du-du-du-du-du!"

Speaker: "We're on contract, we're not drinking, we have no alcohol, we have no guns, we have no knives, we have no this." Like, we're going through the list of- to try to ma-- they're like, "The only way we're letting you in is to take your hoodie off." Okay. Interviewer: (inc) safer right, yeah. Yeah.

Stupid.
